Alek-se, if you go into the RS beta, and load up a eastern front map, you'll find the PPS-42 available for the Russians. You might also want to load Barashka Transport, as you will find another nice new toy for the Russians there.

I will make GrB39, but only for 43-44 years map. I will not make it for Stalingrad maps ( for historical accurate ). I hope mappers will not brake history
We also are working on PPD-40 , for exampleP.S. i already fixed handguard length on PPD, just too lazy to open max and make new screen
Reminds me of the Finnish Suomi KP-31...

Well, I've read that both PPD-40 and Suomi smg have the same "roots". The Suomi was inspired by SIG Bergmann smg, which was a licenced copy of the German MP-18. The PPD-40 was a modified version of the PPD-34, which structure was copied from the MP-28, which was an improved version of the MP-18. And the drum magazine of PPD-40 used was almost a direct copy of the "Koskinen" drum magazine developed for the Suomi. Interestingly even the overall manufacturing numbers are about the same, around 80 000 pieces, but that's just a coincidence.
PPD-40 even "imitated" Suomi in Red Orchestra: Ostfront, where "Germans" could use it in a map called Mannikkala.
